Poker Hand Nicknames

Had a thread on this a while back on Gretzkys.

99 is a Gretzky.
999 is a triple Gretzky
9x9 - split Gretzky
9xxx9 - wide Gretzky
AA77x - wounded man's hand

Then there's the 'royal sampler'. :expressionless:

I hereby nominate the following hand

2 5 10 10 10

as the Frugal Trip.

(congratulations Jean and Brad!!!!!!)

Royal Flusher

Howdy

Today while playing JB VP I was pulling three queens so often I decided to
聽聽聽give the hand a name. To me they will hence forth and forever more be known
聽聽聽as.."The Andrew Sisters." Don't ask me which one is Laverne !

That got me to thinking (no wise cracks please) and I began to recall other
聽聽聽endearing terms for various formations of the Unholy 52. Some I know are quite
聽聽聽familiar to you and yours. A full house is referred to as a "boat" or "full
聽聽聽boat". A small 5 card straight is a "wheel". Three of a kind are "trips"..and
聽聽聽four of a kind are "quads. A pair of jacks we used to call "meat hooks" and
聽聽聽a pair of kings were "cowboys". Aces are called "bullets by some.

I am sure you can thing of some others that would pertain to a video poker
聽聽聽hand.

Hey let's have some fun kids......I really need a life.......Grump
